Mandeville Films is an Americanfilm &televisionproduction company headquartered inBurbank, California. The company was founded in 1995 byDavid Hoberman.[1] After a three-year hiatus, the company re-formed as Mandeville Films and Television in 2002; Hoberman and Lieberman were partners and co-owners.[2]
Film executiveDavid Hoberman founded Mandeville Films in January 1995 as he exitedWalt Disney Studios with a five-year, multi-picture production deal.[3]
In 1999,Todd Lieberman became studio partner and as president.[4] A week later, Hoberman and its employees both left Mandeville to form a self-financing outfit,Hyde Park Entertainment, withAshok Amritraj (former founder ofFranchise Pictures), with split deals at theWalt Disney Studios andMetro-Goldwyn-Mayer (MGM) as the company initially went inactive.[5][6]
In 2002, Amritaj and Hoberman split their ties, and Hoberman himself reformedMandeville Films with an exclusive five-year contract withWalt Disney Studios.[2][7] Hoberman brought along fellow producerTodd Lieberman as a partner, who worked with Hoberman when he was senior vice president for international finance at Hyde Park Entertainment.
When Mandeville Films returned to the studios, it was scheduled to produce two films each forTouchstone and MGM:Walking Tall,Raising Helen,The Last Shot, andBeauty Shop. The studio itself went back to Disney in2006 to co-produceEight Below andThe Shaggy Dog back-to-back.[8]
Mandeville Films has an ongoing partnership withABC; they renewed their contracts in July 2015 for two more years.[9]
In May 2018, Mandeville Films ended its partnership with Disney to sign withUniversal Pictures for a "first-look production agreement".[10] In 2022,Todd Lieberman split off their ties from the production company.[11] The group was later reformed asHobie Films with a deal withLionsgate on February 21, 2023.[12]
